Track tiresTrack tires are sports tires, which can be distin‐guished by their special tire tread and tire com‐pound. These characteristics combine to providesignificantly higher levels of grip on a dry roadsurface than conventional tires.
& WARNING Risk of accident due to thetire tread depth diminishing more quickly
Due to the tire compound, the tire treaddepth can diminish more quickly on thesetires than on customary tires.Driving at low temperatures of 50°F (10°C)and below, rain and bodies of water can leadto hydroplaning and, as a result, loss of con‐trol of the vehicle.# When the roads are wet and/or in low
temperatures, replace tires with suita‐ble tires in good time.
# In the case of sudden rain, driveextremely carefully and slowly, espe‐cially when the roads are wet or in lowtemperatures.

Operating fluidsFuel
Notes on fuel grades for Mercedes-AMG vehi‐clesObserve the notes on operating fluids in thevehicle Operator's Manual.
* NOTE Damage caused by the wrong fuel
Even small amounts of the wrong fuel couldresult in damage to the fuel system, theengine and the emission control system.# Only refuel with low-sulfur gasoline.
This fuel may contain up to 10% ethanol byvolume. Your vehicle is suitable for use withE10 fuel.Never refuel with one of the following fuels:R DieselR Gasoline with more than 10% ethanol by
volume, e.g. E15, E85, E100
R Gasoline with more than 3% methanol byvolume, e.g. M15, M30, M85, M100R Gasoline with additives containing metal
If you have accidentally refueled with thewrong fuel:# do not switch the ignition on.# Consult a qualified specialist workshop.
If the available fuel is not sufficiently low in sul‐fur, this can produce unpleasant odors.Only refuel using unleaded premium grade gaso‐line with at least 91 AKI/95 RON.As a temporary measure, if the recommendedfuel is not available, you may also use unleadedregular gasoline. Octane number on the vehicleon the information label in the fuel filler flap (seethe vehicle Operator's Manual). Filling up withunleaded regular gasoline can reduce engineoutput and increase fuel consumption.Never refuel using gasoline with an even lowerRON.
* NOTE Premature engine wear throughunleaded regular gasoline
Impairment of the longevity and performanceof the engine.If unleaded premium grade gasoline isunavailable and you have to refuel usingunleaded regular gasoline:# Only fill the fuel tank to half full with
unleaded regular gasoline and refill assoon as possible with unleaded pre‐mium grade gasoline.
# Do not drive at the maximum designspeed.
# Avoid sudden acceleration and enginespeeds over 3000 rpm.
